Champions League – Aston Villa – PSG – The notes of Parisians: Grazie Donnarumma, Kvaratskhelia missing

The Savior in 8th and the Savior in the quarterfinals. The Italian released an immense performance to maintain the heads of Parisians out of the water when all his teammates panicked. Fortunately, Donnarumma held the barrack on three fantastic interventions: a horizontal on a strike from Rashford (54th), a decisive extension on a Tielemans head (59th) and a duel won against Asensio (68th). You can add a parade in front of Torres (17th) and an outing in the feet of Rashford (51st). Besides, he can't do much on the three goals.

He opens the scoring with a lot of composure after having followed the counter Parisian perfectly. The Moroccan never stopped offering a solution in front and he could even have offered a double (33rd). Rather solid in defense, he overall held his corridor even if the great risks he takes on the recovery have sometimes exposed his team.

• In short … He showed the way.

The strongest of Parisian defenders. He started on crazy bases by pushing everything or perfectly covering Rashford (8th). It is he who recovers the ball on the first and the second Parisian goal, which gives a certain idea of ​​his weight in the scenario of the match. But in the second half, he was won by the feverishness of his comrades and will give off less insurance.

• In short … This time he did not break.

As unshakeable against Liverpool, Pacho had big air holes on Tuesday. Bad full axis reminders, lost duels: we have not recognized it. If he diverts unwittingly the first goal of Aston Villa, he is fully responsible on the second after taking to intervene. It reproduces the same error on Rashford which takes advantage of it to draw a big firecracker (55th). But it is he who saves the match ball after additional time. What forgive him the rest.

• In short … The wolf has become lamb.

A match that looks like him. On the battery side, this goal in the center-forward position which recalls how elusive it is as soon as it crosses the midline. On the face side, a lot of difficulty in frame Rogers and large errors in trajectory appreciation. The Portuguese has helped to weaken his defense by his hesitations.

• In short: Too many concentration swings.

If disciplined in this Champions League campaign, Portuguese deeply disappointed on Tuesday. Far too easy, he put Paris several times in difficulty as on this backward head which could have cost a goal (14th). Supported and too high on the first English goal, he was eliminated like a beginner on the third by completely diving into the feint. Odd.

• In short … Symbol of a PSG that has been too beautiful.

He too suffered from the English furia. He first shone in recovery and it was he who orchestrates the against the second Parisian goal. But, unable to put his foot on the ball in the second half, he gradually lost the thread of his match.

Like Vitinha, he is too easily eliminated on the third goal of Aston Villa. Before this big mistake, he recovered many balloons and served as an effective relay in the counters of PSG. Ruiz had the merit of not hiding even if we would have liked him to put more impact in his interventions.

Apart from a relay on the second goal of PSG, the Georgian made only bad choices. He was obstinate in individual solutions when it was not necessary and overall lacking in clairvoyance in his choices. If sharp to go, we have not seen him on the return and he relaunches Aston Villa when his loss of ball leads to the first English goal. On the other hand, its big defensive efforts are to be emphasized.

If all the Parisians had had its level of commitment then PSG would have qualified with a cigar in the mouth. Author of a number of shameless sprints, calls or pressings, he offered the second goal on a set in Nuno Mendes. He sometimes lacked lucidity at the end of the match and he must serve desired gifted rather than going alone (76th) but he pays his big riot of energy.

• In short … What an engine …

A very big start to the match where he was the most dangerous Parisian. The danger has constantly came for its part and its wonderful call made the difference on the opening of the Parisian score (11th). Poison during the first half hour, he gradually died out in particular during a second period when he made too many bad choices.
